{"Leave her alone."   The words from the next room resounding in Kat's ears bringing her back from wherever she'd mentally gone for the moment. Her emerald eyes fluttered open to reveal that she was in an unfamiliar room.  "What do you want with her?"  the voice in the next room demanded, the voice sounding vaguely familiar to the doctor.  Was it Thomas or perhaps Nick, being held captive as well and for what?  Kat had tried her best to look around the room finding it difficult to move against the straps holding her down onto some type of table. "Silence human." an unfamiliar masculine voice responded. Kat spied a table with strange instruments laying neatly in preparation for some sort of medical procedure.  She opened her mouth and tried to speak but the words wouldn't come. Horrified at the sight of the crude instruments and the fact that she could not utter a sound Kat began to struggle all the more against the straps.  "You show such concern for the female...is she yours?" the strange voice inquired.  "It doesn't  matter let her go.." The other familiar voice replied and soon was silenced. "Enough questions.." the voice stated then motioned for a couple of  his guards to take the man away for the time being. "I will deal with that one later...I need to know if the female has been prepared." he told another of his assistants.  "She is ready for you master....do you really think this female.....this human...can save our kind?"the servant asked.

"We shall see....she certainly is appealing enough and a fine specimen for breeding."  the servant gave a nod as he led his master into the room where Kat was being held. "Tell me pretty one are there any others like you?" he asked running a hand with long gnarly fingers along Kat's jaw loosening whatever hold had kept her from being able to speak. "Maybe there is and maybe there isn't.....let me free." she groaned. The assistant began to loosen the straps holding Kat down in preparation for the the so called 'procedure'. Kat wriggled free quickly knocking out the assistant and grabbing one of the crude instruments on the table and held it to her own neck. "Now, you're gonna let me and the others go." she said looking at her captor with a crazed look in her emerald green eyes. "We are not here to save your race." she said slowly moving the instrument away and moving closer to her captor then shifting it to his neck. She pressed it against his neck nudging him to move into the next room where the others were held. "Release them!" she commanded.......}


<Kat's office>

Kat awakened suddenly to find herself sprawled on the floor behind her desk. "What the heck?....." she murmured trying to recall her dream. She stood up and moved back to her seat to resume making charting entries.
